Overview

Mobagogy, which means learning led by mobile technology, is a relatively new personalised learning model that integrates pedagogy and andragogy.

As training moves toward more digital formats, it is colliding with new realities in learners’ jobs, behaviours, habits and preferences. Today’s employees are overwhelmed, distracted and impatient. Flexibility in where and how they learn is increasingly important. They want to learn from their peers and managers as much as from experts. They are also taking more control over their own development. There are obvious shifts in the power zones of learning, from institutional zones to personal zones.

Considering these trends, we have leveraged on years of pedagogical and technological research, and developed SMiLES (Social and Micro-Learning and Engagement System ) to miniaturise learning technologies for powering instant-mobile-first learning needs. We believe that SMiLES will allow businesses to improve employee performance by better connecting with the needs of the modern workplace learners.

This workshop will introduce AEs to the principles behind mobagogy, and enable participants to understand how SMiLES applies mobile and micro-learning to develop corporate mega-memory for organisational learning. Participants can also opt to be involved in actual projects involving implementation of micro-learning in enterprises.
